Cris Gonzalez

New Guitar, Drum and Piano Instructor Joins Staff

Nashville Music Academy welcomes new piano, drum and guitar instructor Cris Gonzalez. He is a graduate of Berklee College of Music and has been teaching for 10 years. Gonzales has always been around music education. His father founded a Rock Academy in his home town of Sugar Hill GA where they gave lessons and arranged bands for kids to get jamming and even go out and gig! He’s taught at various schools in Georgia as well as Boston. His philosophy is preserving the fun of music and getting kids (and adults!) in to the rhythm of things by prioritizing feel in performance, quick ways to reach goals, and getting to the heart of why music can be a powerful tool for everyone to be able to express themselves, and light up places in the brain and body that may have been idling in the past. To make an appointment with Cris, please email us at Nashville Music Academy or give us a call or text at 615-521-1937.

NMA Guitar Teacher, Rebecca Frazier

A guitar teacher is not an endangered species in Nashville. However, a great guitar teacher is definitely something a little more difficult to find. At Nashville Music Academy, we are very grateful to have several wonderful guitar instructors. One of them is Rebecca Frazier. Rebecca is great with beginners and advanced students, and has a remarkable career as a writer and performer. Frazier came to national attention in 2006 as the first female on the cover of Flatpicking Guitar Magazine, and was later picked up by Compass Records for her flatpicking/songwriting solo showcase When We Fall (2013)The album received heavy airplay on SiriusXM Radio and peaked at #3 on the national Roots Music Report Chart. Other honors include Rebecca’s 2009 IBMA Recorded Event of the Year award for her work on the Daughters of Bluegrass’ Bluegrass Bouquet album. She also had a feature appearance singing “Keep on the Sunnyside” on Hank William’s biopic, 20th Century Fox The Last Ride movie soundtrack released by Curb Records in 2012.

While her primary focus is bluegrass (particularly flat-picking), she is also well versed in Pop, Country, and Americana. She is available for guitar lessons as well as mandolin and ukelele lessons. Rebecca teaches in both our Berry Hill location, and in East Nashville as well. To book a lesson with her, please give us a call at 615-521-1937.
